Free: Organically Grown Chard (Alfreton DE55) Expired Organically grown chard. Overwintered, organically grown chard from my allotment is ready for harvest now, but too much for just me to use. Can be eaten raw similar to Spinach as salad or added to salad or used in stir fries. I normally leave surplus allotment produce outside house but this will wilt if I just leave it, hence using Freecycle. offering a carrier bag of Chard - collection only after 5pm weekdays only following Bank Holiday weekend

Free: Lime/Spring Green Curtains and Home Decor Items/Bundle (Alfreton DE55) Expired I bought these bits and bobs for a botanical-themed bedroom, but have since changed the colour scheme to Sage Green. The blackout curtains (I think they were bought online not sure of the brand) also help with some noise) have a damask pattern within the weave/material of the curtains and have eyelets at the top, a green ribbed glass beaker, a fluffy small, thin (runner type) rug from Temu, a small bedside/desktop lamp and lampshade (not PAT tested) Please note: the close-up of the damask pattern makes the curtains look a different colour but the true colour is like the beaker or the rug - a true lime green. I have put the curtains in the plastic zip-up bags that my new curtains came in, for ease of collection. Would prefer all items to be collected together. Collection after 4.30 pm weekdays only Dimensions: Eyelet Blackout Curtains: 135 cms long ( drop) and 150cms width dry clean only - but clean condition Temu Rug: washable 120cms x about 50cms wide Lamp: about 40cms tall

Free: Lemon Balm (Alfreton DE55) Gifted Lemon balm is a bushy perennial herb with deliciously lemon-scented leaves and creamy-white or pale purple flowers in summer. It is vigorous and easy to grow in sun or light shade. The leaves give a lemony kick to salads, sauces and fish dishes, and make a refreshing herb tea. Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) is an herb from the mint family. I can dig up plants ready, but you will have to bring your pots etc. I prefer to gift one per person for fairness. There are about 3 spare plants left now in total. Just gifting as I have all the lemon balm I need and it spreads like wildfire! If you plant it I would advise planting it within a pot, or in a pot, in the ground, as it's similar to mint ( from the mint family) in the way it spreads. Collect Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday Evenings, after work, at around 5-7pmish No Saturday or Sunday daytime, Mondays or Thursdays nights. Also posted on another well-known recycling site so reserve the right to end
